since I'm a noob and don't know much about this stuff, I went to TorqAmp's site. I entered my engine information which is 6.0 liter engine with a max rpm of 7,000 and they suggested the dual compressor kit which looks to be about 3,000 US Dollars.
that is the flow chart for the supercharger that I am in the process of installing on my 6.0 LQ4. If I can spin it with the electric motor then it will be better than if the engine spins it. someone said it used like 37hp to spin that blower at 20,000 rpms. so I don't know if it will work.

so, each black line i added and where the maroon colors top out at? that's each PSI. goes up to 14 with the engine by itself in the light red on the...
a roots blower only needs to spin to 20,000 rpm and has a moderately flat boost curve. it seems to me that a fixed amount of airflow to spin a more efficient turbo would be beneficial.
I bought this 1982 Chevy S10 about 18 months ago for the purpose of using as a "street/strip" truck. it has a 6.0 liter LQ4 and a TH350 with a chevy 8.5" rear end in 3.73 and a limited slip differential. it's the fastest thing i've ever owned. I ran it at the drag strip last summer multiple...
did you ever test any water/methanol injection? I ran it on a 2001 Pontiac Grand Prix that had a supercharged 3.8 liter engine. it dropped the eaton m90 gen 5 from like 250 degree's Fahrenheit to about 200 f.
I watched a small portion of Tucker Carlson's interview with Vladimir Putin. It is unfortunate the current state of affairs but I cannot support the war in Ukraine as the Ukrainian army has literal Neo Nazi's fighting in it.
